# Steps to Follow:
01 -
Once you pull the dish from the oven, toss extra bacon bits and chopped chives on top before digging in.
02 -
Craving more bacon? Lay out extra strips and bake at 375°F for twenty minutes or until they're crispy and browned. Let them cool, then crumble.
03 -
Slide the dish, uncovered, into the hot oven. Leave it for 25–30 minutes until the top's golden and the filling is super bubbly.
04 -
Scatter your buttery cracker blend across the chicken mix, covering every part.
05 -
Grab a fresh bowl. Mix your crushed crackers and melted butter together so every crumb gets some butter.
06 -
Spoon all of the chicken mix into the greased 9x13-inch pan. Spread it out to the edges.
07 -
Toss the chopped chicken, canned soup, mayo, sour cream, mozzarella, cheddar, bacon bits, salt, and pepper into your biggest bowl. Stir it up until everything looks well mixed.
08 -
Set your oven to 350°F. Lightly oil or spray a 9x13-inch pan, so nothing sticks.
# Additional Tips:
01 -
Chicken cooked fresh works great. If you're short on time, grab a rotisserie chicken from the store.
02 -
Let your casserole sit for five minutes after baking so it’s easier to scoop and serve.
